STOP THE BLEED CLASS

This post is also available in:

Dr. Andrew Badulak, a member of Doctors of the Americas, offered the ACS Stop the Bleed course, also known as modern tourniquet use, to about fifty volunteers from Comandos de Salvamento, thereby updating their knowledge for the pre-hospital services they provide to the community.

“Stop the Bleed” is a registered trademark of the United States Department of Defense and the Defense Health Agency, and is part of the American College of Surgeons program. The course teaches modern techniques to stop bleeding and the use of the tourniquet, as it is popularly known.

Each of the attending volunteers received a certificate from the Committee on Trauma of the American College of Surgeons.
@alertacomando thanks Dr. Andrew Badulak for the services provided to the volunteers.
